Can you run Hossiers tubeless?
Tire brand recommendation/loyality is somewhat class/car specific and regional.

That said, I've tried them all over 20 years and IMO, none better for what I do than Hoosier and I've never run tubes nor do I screw them to the rim. Hoosiers don't leak air.

As to the sidewalls giving up after a couple of years...well I wouldn't know, I go through 2 sets a season, taking them out of service between 125 and 150 passes and the 60 foots are still deadly, varying thousanths from pass to pass.

Been a best of 1.17 in 60 foot to date on Hoosier's 32 x 13.5 Radial slick with my 3144 lb. Firebird.
